The BAFTA award-winning VFX studio has appointed Annie Gordon as Executive Producer and Lizzie Hill as Senior Producer.
Annie will oversee all of Lola’s operations across its roster of premium Factual and Drama projects reporting to Lola’s Founder and Creative Director Rob Harvey.
Annie brings to Lola her strong VFX production expertise gained over fifteen years working on high profile projects from The Hobbit Trilogy (MGM/New Line Cinema) for Park Road/Weta in New Zealand, The Hunger Games: Mockingjay (Lionsgate) and Ghosts (BBC) to creating new pipelines for virtual production and animation projects.

Lola is currently in production on projects including Alexander The Great, a Netflix factual drama being produced by Lion Television/Alexander Tailfeather, a comedy drama for AppleTV and two landmark Natural History factual shows for Netflix: Our Living World and Our Planet II.
Annie’s and Lizzie’s appointments add to a raft of recent hires including Head of CG Cesar Eiji Nunes and Lead Nuke Compositor Daniel Miller, as Lola builds on its most successful year to date in 2022, having completed work on the VFX BAFTA nominated Universe (BBC), Dangerous Liaisons (Starz/Lionsgate) and Dinosaurs: The Final Day with David Attenborough (BBC). Lola’s recent credits also include BAFTA-winning work on Troy: Fall Of A City (BBC/Netflix), two seasons of Britannia (Sky), One Strange Rock (Nat Geo), Welcome To Earth (Nat Geo), Bad Sisters (AppleTV), The Watch (BBC and Giri/Haji (BBC).
